Cork City Railways
Introduction
This short line in the city of Cork linked the Cork, Bandon and South Coast Railway's Cork Albert Quay station (originally the Cork and Bandon Railway) to the Great Southern and Western Railway's Cork Glanmire Road. The line ran through the streets and crossed a pair of William Arrol built Sherzer rolling bridges over the River Lee.
